Near-record heat is in the forecast for a few more days across California, but a big cool-down is coming for the weekend.

The question now is: will it be cool and dry with a north breeze? Or will it be cool and damp with clouds and a chance for rain?

Dirk and Heather talk through what forecast models are currently showing in today’s weather chat. You can watch the full conversation in the video above or head to the KCRA 3 YouTube channel.

These weather chats are also uploaded twice weekly to KCRA’s free streaming app called Very Local.
